Franklin High School Ratings & Reviews

Couldn't be happier or more grateful to the staff and teachers at FHS. Their AP program is soaring with student participation, thanks to Susie Bartley and others. Graduation rates get better every year, due to the passion and enthusiasm the teachers pass on. Our child was involved in many, many activities, scholastic, athletic, leadership, etc and has emerged with a great scholarship at an acclaimed university. The climate at FHS fosters and encourages growth, learning and participation. PS. Even the athletics are improving. The previously mentioned Volleyball coach is gone and coaching in all sports is getting better. The cross-country running program is among the best in the conference.

My student has really blossomed at Franklin. He was a tag student at his middle school, and mostly into academics. At FHS he got a chance to run cross country, try the school paper, and get into lots of other extra-curricular activities. He also took AP classes nearly every year. FHS has a good, diverse student body and lots of chances to get involved.

Everyone is super friendly, the teachers, the students.... everyone. We have a wide variety of classes and it is just awesome. The best school I've ever gone to- but we're really short on money.

I Graduated from Franklin a few years back and absolutly enjoyed it. The teachers I had we're wonderful and I never had any sort of encounters with fighting, the students stayed in their groups and the sports we're great...Highly recommended!!
